Offer compassion beyond the funeral with GriefChat
GriefChat is a powerful way to show families that your care doesn’t end with the service. In partnership with MuchLoved, this free, professional bereavement support tool can be seamlessly integrated into your funeral business' website — giving visitors instant access to a qualified grief counsellor when they need it most.
A simple way to make a lasting difference
Supporting a family through the funeral is just one part of the care you provide. With GriefChat, you can extend that support beyond the service, offering instant access to a qualified bereavement counsellor, directly from your own website. As a MuchLoved partner, this feature is included at no extra cost and can be added quickly and easily to your site.
GriefChat is designed for the moments when someone feels they have nowhere to turn. Whether it’s a few weeks after the funeral, or during a moment of crisis — this service ensures they can talk to a trained professional offering comfort, guidance and a safe space to talk.

How GriefChat Works
GriefChat appears as a small pop-up chat box on your funeral website, similar to a live customer support widget. It allows visitors to instantly connect with a real, qualified grief counsellor. There are no forms to fill in and no waiting times — just someone to talk to, right away.
